Shame on You Rick Santelli: A Little Bubble History

Here is a little history of Santelli and the banks worth reading as we ready for the next housing bubble:

The problem with Rick Santelli is that he had no clue about what
happened in the housing crisis. He had no clue because he didn't
understand that people were told lies as they took on toxic mortgages.
First, they were often told that the mortgage rates were fixed. But more
importantly, they were told that the mortgages will be able to be
refinanced later. They were not told that house prices could decline,
and the real estate agents were in on this as I listened to David Lereah
(NAR) continually state that Real Estate willl bounce back because it
rarely goes down.
Now I resisted these loans, and so did my daughter, because we were
afraid to pay more for a house than it was worth. In other words, many
of us understood that what must go up must come down. And we know what
we are worth and what we could buy and it was unnatural for us to think
we could qualify for mansions when we were not wealthy.
But persuasive real estate agents and mortgage agents were telling
lies about the ability for real estate to always go up and about the
certainty that you could refinance at a later date. Santelli seems to
think that people should all have discerned these scams as obvious lies.
I don't agree. I think that Santelli is really shilling for the banks
here and is protecting the banks. He lives to protect the banks even
though as a video below shows that he sometimes rails against the TBTF
banks. In that respect, all of CNBC knows that their bread is buttered
on the protection of Wall Street.
Wall Street is corrupt, Santelli. You are a part of it. You should be
doing like Dylan Ratigan, who left CNBC because he spoke about getting
clawbacks from bankers and about putting them in jail. I think the big
bankers and the shadow banking system that they supported were
predators. IF SANTELLI REFUSES TO SEE THAT HE IS A BLIND MAN. Santelli grudgingly, like myself, accepted the bank bailouts.
However, he did not adequately explain that the bankers were at fault,
along with the central banks, for the housing bubble scam in the first
place! He blames the borrowers and that is just wrong.

The problem with Jim Cramer, Rick Santelli and all the rest is that
they have a vested interest in protecting the big banks. Santelli does
occasionally state that the too-big-to-fail banks should be allowed to
fail. But I don't believe that at the "end of the day" he would defend
the consumers instead of the banks. That is proven by his position on
the liar and adjustable loans, where Santelli defended the banks against
the consumers who were clearly scammed.
CNBC, INCLUDING RICK SANTELLI, does not acknowledge that the central banks and the big international banks are at fault for the credit meltdown in a PLANNED EFFORT,
that the big banks either bankrolled the shadow banking system or they
purchased the shadow banks like Scumtrywide (Countrywide) and World
Savings and Loan in order to protect themselves. The New World Order
protects itself and we hope for it's failure as I wrote here!
We
know that the big banks had investment arms that continually peddled
crap bonds made up of liar loans. The Wall Street crowd supports these
big banks. The ponzi housing scam originated in Basel, Switzerland at
Basel 2. The ponzi scam of off balance sheet banking came from Basel 2.
The Fed colluded in this behavior.
I have spoken about
manipulation and the links below will give information in more detail. I
don't see Rick Santelli attacking the financial system itself, and
calling, as Dylan Ratigan did, for incarceration of the potentially
guilty parties, including Goldman Sachs people.
So until CNBC decides to attack the big banks and Wall Street for its misdeeds, then we just need to boycott stocks. The market is manipulated. Here is a list of markets that are manipulated:1.
The Stock Market. The plunge protection team has been established by
Ronald Reagan to prevent major declines in the market. It is still in
place by law. The plunge protection team works until it doesn't and then
the ones who know and are on the inside profit by declines. Volume is
very low these days on the stock market, and Goldman Sachs and other
traders are likely taking advantage of these low volumes to drive stocks
up.2. The bond market is manipulated by the
Fed and central banks, who allowed Basel 2 ponzi off balance sheet
banking, who buy treasuries to keep interest rates artificially low.3. The oil market is manipulated as prices went from 32 dollars a barrel to 80 dollars while demand DECREASED.4.
The housing market is manipulated by two events. First, inventory is
being withheld by the banks. Second, short sales are being discouraged
by the banks, who prefer the tax advantages of foreclosures.I don't see Rick Santelli advocating the walking away from mortgages.5.
The commodity markets besides oil are being manipulated. China and
others are hoarding commodities such as copper, even though construction
is declining.

Join Talkmarkets for Financial Information. It is free! https://goo.gl/QZff5YI have written a lot of vetted articles that are exclusive** to Talkmarkets. Sorting a portion of them by subject will give the reader an opportunity to make sense of it all. I am adding a glossary of terms at the bottom of this page.For readers interested in economic subjects of the day, these top 30 themes are my efforts to make understanding economics easier:I have pinned the following article to the top because it is an insight into my personal life, as well as a commentary on isms. Capitalism is still the greatest system for creating wealth. However, it is often mixed, and mixturism is a factor in its success or failure:

There is further study in the articles I have cited for you at the end of this article. People must, must understand that Donald Trump is a divider of races and ethnicity, because at heart he is a fascist. Fascism seeks the purity of the races. Fascism is the opposite of what America stands for. Keep in mind that Donald Trump is highly influenced by Anarcho Capitalist, Murray Rothbard. This is an email I sent to an author online. It is slightly muddled, but overall quite accurate in its assessment of Libertarian Murray Rothbard:

Hi Steve,
I agree with your article on Rothbard, mostly. However, as a British court ruled, Zionism is not the essence of what it means to be Jewish. Therefore, I hate antiSemitism, and embrace antiZionism. I have both religious and non religious reasons for taking this stand. And the court absolves me of racism. After all my natural father was Jewish. And more and more Jews hate Zionism. And Zionism is quite multiracial at this point.
So, Trump actually is …

John Mauldin published an article regarding the economics of Donald Trump. I share many of his views. I think the article deserves to be discussed further.

It isn't as if John Mauldin is happy with the continual drive toward negative yields and the new normal. I believe he is like many, willing to fight for higher interest rates within reason and within the economic boundaries that exist. He is on board with the Fed, unlike other central banks, and is willing to risk recession to avoid negative rates:

Meanwhile, the Fed is in the middle of a long-overdue policy turn. There’s still a risk that they will find they started tightening just in time for a recession, which is also long overdue. I was convinced last summer that they would push rates negative in that scenario. Negative rates could yet happen, but I think they wi…
